As the only humans who appear on the show, the celebrity contestants will go head to head in a number of games, each hoping to win £10,000 for their chosen charity. They'll compete in subjects such as sport, science, celebrity, nature, music and mental agility.

Dougie Colon (pronounced cologne) will host the show with each of the individual games run and hosted by a different puppet character, who is an expert in their field. But that's only half the story...

In a unique twist, That Puppet Game Show is the first gameshow to also include a backstage sitcom. It features all the puppet characters that we've met onstage and more, like the producer Mancie and the bullish show executive, Udders McGhee. Combining the comedy traditions of The Jim Henson Company and a top celebrity based gameshow, That Puppet Game Show promises to bring family fun to BBC One.
